We are now down to 48hrs and counting... the tension mounts!Time to start some planning: you will need 14 clubs, a pair of golf shoes, a brolly, some (lots?) balls, markers, gloves, wet gear, at least 4 golf shirts, something to wear in the evenings (no ties required), shorts (for the optimists), a camera, more golf balls and probably a spare pair of shoes (it may be wet...), passport, wallet, keys, money, watch, ear plugs, a sense of humour and the ability to taste a dram of what the Bushmills has to offer... and a cuddly toy!
Not sure about you, but I shall be struggling to concentrate in tomorrow's meetings.. worrying about Calamity Corner and White Rocks (and not a bit about UK stocks and shares... are we going to follow Greece, Portugal and Spain?)...
saw irish private pt yesterday; said they were bastards of courses apart from one of them. Adrian and I at foxhills this PM for last minute brush up!
ReplyDeletePractising with 48 hours of the off Roland - is that strictly fair? Perhaps we should take another look at your handicap!
ReplyDeleteMartin - thanks for the list, which in my experience may have over looked two essential items; liberal helpings of both abject disappointment and graciousness in defeat! ...that said, I remain confident! :-)
I have a couple of additions on my list. Firstly Nurofen, and secondly TomTom. BTW anyone got a good TomTom I can borrow for the weekend? - not for me but for my idiot son who can't understand how to drive to Haslemere without one. (I've programmed ours for th N Iron destinations). When I sugested he used a map like in the olden days he looked at me with a combination of incredulity and bewilderment.
ReplyDeleteNigel - we can certainly help on that... Martin
ReplyDeleteNigel - my TomTom was nicked from the car recently. We'll I guess thieves need to know how to get places as well!
ReplyDeleteSurprised they can be bothered - probably won't get more than a tenner for it down the local pub...
